i think if i ever had a day like this i would be happy...forever...

[@itscacti6055]

It is possible!

[@JustBunnie]

These videos help my anxiety so much. Everythings so calm and makes me feel like everything will be okay. Dude genuinely thankyou for your content.

[@lucasbrady4639]

I loved the music you used for this video, and Theo wrapped up in the blanked was just so precious! Your new desk space looks amazing as well, I love the way that the wood desk stays with the whole vibe of your apartment :). I was super happy to see your video in my notifications today, keep up the amazing work!

[@gerardobarrios4139]

I'm from Mexico and lately I been obsessed with your videos. Please don't stop, I love your work

[@latui7350]

Love how cozy this video is! The rainy day, your super cozy house and your and Chris's wonderful taste in music make this video perfection.

[@timothygreer188]

I'd like to offer a bit of advice about the bookshelf terrarium. With the wood being so close to the tank you may want to create a waterproof barrier and maybe put a small circulation fan behind it. It's to keep the mildew from forming on the wood causing spores to spread into your books. I lost a lot of first editions because I didn't do that. Love your videos, except for the part where it makes me feel like I must have new plants but can't because it's already in the freezing temps here in NYC. 🪴🐈

[@bingboyify]

i just replay benji's videos to chill at weekends.

[@jung.forever.]

Thank you for mentioning the challenge of organizing plant supplies.

[@Volny1k]

I'm cooking right now while this is playing. I'm not even looking at the screen, I'm just listening. Your voice is just therapeutic, that's why I come to your channel from time to time.

[@LisaMarieKaspar]

I love all your videos and I especially love how real you are here, telling us that you also have times when you avoid certain chores sometimes etc. I feel like your channel is never about perfection (i mean that in a very good way!) and you always have this calm and positive vibes in your videos. Thank you for creating and sharing parts of your life with us! ❤

[@capcitymatt]

You can use fish tank water, just save some when you do water change, it helps the plants. Also you can collect rain water.

[@jo-marpartida2765]

I love that your a relatable person especially when it comes to not wanting to do complex plant care sometimes super relatable!

[@abigirlll]

Whenever I want some chill plant inspiration I watch your videos and it is the best! Keep up the good work Benji 😊

[@ivancadiz.]

Benji, just fnished repairing a leak in my 100 gal pond, had to relocate fishes and plants, got really tired and frustrated, watching these vid brought back calm, thank you.

[@PocketGarden]

I fell in love with your plants and your set up. Your voice sounds so relaxing as well. Makes me feel good watching your videos. Thank you!

[@Master_Blackthorne]

Theo, the dancing doggie!

[@bananana_bread]

Love how honest and humble you seem 🙏🏼😇💜✨

[@francinez1087]

I love the calmness of your videos. Theo is adorable too. Keep creating content. ❤

[@TrophyPlant]

Haha. That’s what I do. Water Wednesdays. Sip Sundays. Two days for plant care. :)

[@carlosaguilera8615]

benji, you bring me so much joy on sundays ❤️❤️🌿🌸

[@condor9685]

I love how your style illustrates the vibes perfectly ❤

[@WitchyWendigo]

This is exactly what I needed to watch right now Benji. Thank you. 💗💗 love your videos so much!

[@xiangji920]

Really love the home setup and how you presented them! It’s so calm and soothing to watch your videos. Thank you so much!

[@chadjordan3953]

Thank you Benji! I've fallen in love with your content and you've helped me through some tough times. I'm going to be making a greenhouse cabinet line yours soon and I couldn't be more excited 😃

[@bencardenas11]

Benji, your videos are always a highlight of my weekends. So calming and informative and inspiring. Thank you so much. 💙

[@deboraluiza6805]

This, my friend, is called free therapy. Thank you. 🌱🤌🏼

[@angiebella3260]

Love watching your videos. Your apartment is looking so zen garden chill and i like how you privatized your balcony with the mosquito net

[@corruptedteka]

Thank you so much for this. I needed this so bad right now. Going through a tough situation right now and I needed to relax, this was just perfect. Thank you...

[@IkaayEbi]

[@breadsalmon]

[@elijahballard9537]

Ur whole apartment and aesthetic is my dream aesthetic. I’m just so glad that y’all make these KZbin videos so that I can see how to model my plants and my room after y’all

[@cindyvan635]

I'm in Southern California also, I repot whenever i need to. Also I have Hoyas on my patio, doing great. Love this format, cool projects!!!🌱🤗💚

[@chimcharly]

it always becomes my favorite time of day whenever i'm watching your videos

[@amberbiggs]

I really enjoy your videos and your calm voice. And your apartment is looking soooo nice now 🙂

[@livipotter6392]

Omg, I just love your videos so, so much! Keep it up! 🌱❤

[@sancharitadey6921]

Hi, Benji how are you !? I'm so happy to see you again today 💓 💗

[@user-mj7bg1ob3u]

Thank you, both

[@TinyWorldLaboratory]

Thank you Benji for always convincing me to add all sorts of new things to my shopping carts 😅

[@sallyb3]

Enjoy your videos, they are so real life 🎉

[@carolelafontaine8068]

Merci pour la vidéo. J'aime tellement l'ambiance qui sen dégage ! Tellement zen. Bisous de France !

[@mishalanjum]

Hi Benji, I'm not having the best time right now, but your videos helps me calm down, thank you so much

[@GabbyRocio]

Wooooooow! Always beautiful and inspiring!

[@JieBrigs]

So glad you brought up repotting in the winter. I live in Hawai’i and there’s not a huge houseplant community in the town I live in (we mostly do a lot of outdoor gardening) so there’s really no one I can turn to for advice. With the slight changes in season we have here (if there are any) I was getting so confused with what I’ve been reading online on what to do and what not to do with your houseplants throughout the year. So thank you for your input!

[@jademurray8235]

Oh yes, 35min of Benji🤩🎉💃🏾🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿

[@stk206]

jiahao is a friend for life.

[@sylviagutierrez7676]

A lovely repotting video👍 💚🌵☘️🌱

[@brysen808]

The biophytum sensitivum will actually shoot their seeds around a far distance. It is incredible. I had them growing in a terrarium and noticed seeds sticking to the top of the glass and have seen the seeds being launched. You might notice them growing in surrounding plants if left uncovered!

[@Masha-wl3it]

Love your plants 🌱 Love your sweet puppy🐕 Love the video❤ Love your style 😊

[@ClittaReese]

You're really out here living my dream. Lol 🥰 Always so inspired by you!

[@GlobalAthletes]

I love your videos :) You make me happy

[@KellyStamps]

I love this channel

[@BATANDANG]

Hi Mr Benji thanks you for videos and your konten is my insipiration for me 🙏

[@Haydensay98]

I loveeee your creature lamp!!!!! And the frog ❤🤩

[@partypartyyeahhh-sr1gy]

YAsssss!!! New video, i was waiting for it !!!

[@user-qw7oo8zy7x]

Прекрасные растения и милый пёсик))) Благодарю за видео, вдохновляюсь! (Beautiful plants and a cute dog))) Thank you for the video, I'm getting inspired!)😍🌸🪴🍀

[@nildagarcia5398]

I 💘 the pot and the plant is beautiful

[@mandynam7581]

Thank you Benji for the unique and inspiring content. I don't see why you can't have your own TV show one day.

[@PetraEmmy]

Oh my gosh! Love watching your videos but Theo steals my heart 😊

[@sarahkyle6379]

Get assassin snails for your living room tank! They have really pretty shells, stay relatively small, eat algea around your tank and will eat any pest snails (ex.bladder snails) that over take the tank. You could probably get away with 5 in that tank :)

[@davibarroso906]

so relaxing

[@dustincrager2832]

I thought you had a bonsai!! I’ve noticed it in previous videos but just now got a good look at it. That’s pretty cool 😁 I started my plant journey by getting into bonsai and found your channel after getting into houseplants

[@juanitagordon5064]

Home Depot sale cord cover in the lighting section, that you can use to cover your red extension cord, come in different width,no nails needed and you can paint the cord cover.

[@devwithsoul]

Midnight gem! 🙋

[@leftover_salad]

Yay was waiting for a new video! Also that natural wood lamp is amazing

[@anahidedios5501]

“Theo back up” 😂 that was to cute! Also you should probably get a soil potting station they sell some on Amazon:)

[@bibiana1276]

Hey benji! You mentioned you might add snails into your tank but you didn't want there to be so many of them. You should try Nerite snails! There's so many different ones my favorite are the Thorned ones! Also they can't reproduce in fresh water! so no need to worry about babies :)

[@mscalucas]

There is a good chance of the snails escaping from the aquarium without a lid, isn't there? I had that happen to me - so sad to find a dried up snail under the couch.

[@ryanarhlee5800]

obsessed! now i just count my day by the day benji uploaded and the day he doesn't.

[@carolstuff]

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@schmoovegroove]

I just made a kokedama for one of my platycerium's inspired by your old video about how to make one!!!

[@magnify_coffee]

Cozy💙💙素敵🥹🥹🥹

[@harashe1000]

benji please can you do a closet tour 😭 I love all your clothes holy crap

[@antwainclarke3406]

you should definately put snails in that aquarium. I recommend nerite snails. They leave eggs on the glass but they dont breed in freshwater. You can also get shrimp. They'd do great in small bushy tanks like yours and they'll help alot with algae which I imagine will be a bigger issue now that the tank is in an area with stronger light.

[@creativesdiaryzenliving6473]

Hi Benji ! really enjoy watching your. Your apartment is beauitful . You have done is up with a lot of love. The fish pond adds a lot of character to your balcony. Wondering if the fish are fine in the winter do they need a aquarium heater ?

[@LeilaSoleil]

Benji - you finally wore me down. I want one of the staghorn ferns and mounts. lol😂

[@jinx7075]

It's actually already snowing where I live right now. Wich is a little unusual in comparison to the last 15 years but it's still very nice :3. It means there will be snow on my birthday!

[@mhicmusic]

hey benji! I'm planning to grow a rhaphidophora korthalsii this spring, but I feel the same way about the aesethic of a plain wood plank for shingling/climbing plants. My plan is to mount it in spag moss on a plank with a live edge! I think it'll give me the flat mount that I want, but with a more natural vibe! plus each live edge plank is unique :)

[@gustavgron2252]

Now Im unhappily in love. I had no idea Benji had Chris, but Im happy for you. But what about separate bedrooms… Chris, how can you allow it? ;-) Love from Sweden

[@emelynnguyen932]

sensitive plant grows in vietnam too, my dad showed me them growing on the side of the road

[@crazylovers1234]

I don't know y bt I really feel comfort with ur videos m really up to like touched vth ur videos really like obsessed ❤😅

[@HOWARDTHENORSESTOIC]

You could always try and press the pettles from the flower chris got for you or bake them then u will always have them :)

[@gailalbers1430]

I am looking forwards to the moss terrarium i. the shelf 🎉❤

[@benlcr7784]

Your voice hypnotises me

[@willemkehamstra7756]

Those mushrooms lights are the cutest thing ever! Do you have a link on where to buy them?

[@jesbenji9742]

Small fish like ember tetras or CPDs would be fine in your tank, very unlikely to jump. The cool light works well to make tank stand out from all the warm light in the room. Can't wait to see the new terrarium, a green field of moss will look so nice set against all the wood of the shelves.

[@karenb136]

I really enjoyed the video. Nice relaxing rainy day. I loved seeing Theo playing and rolling on the sofa. He is so precious. 💚🌱💚

[@DontDo_This]

Love you’re video’s, plants, and design skills! Where do you find your clothes? I love your style

[@rycw1]

love the aesthetic. where did you get the little mushroom floor lamp?

[@pleckocat1833]

you really flexing with the variegated pachira aquatica, need a cutting XD

[@julierosemodelproductions]

idk if you have the information for what color temperature that current light is but if that one is 5600k, try 4000k. it'll still be somewhat of a "white" light, but with a tad of an orange. if you want that "orange" light, it's 3200k but i personally like the contrast of the blueish light with the orange just like that. love getting to watch the apartment transform

[@gailalbers1430]

I e never seen that size of airplane before : it looks like a dragon - would like to see more and learn more about airplane care .

[@JamesGarcia]

loveeee ittt

[@spencercarter4172]

Hey Benji, are you going to do another ikea products video? They were really interesting :))

[@arii1366]

How do you keep track of when you watered your plants last? Do you keep a book with notes? (If so what does that set up look like?) Or do you just go off of how the plants look? Love your videos btw!

[@OrendaDesignStudio]

Amazing 🥰🥰🥰🥰.

[@qwertyboo]

how can someone be this soft spoken

[@plasticbag5308]

How do you keep your plants alive during the winter? Especially the terranium?

[@aleiakurtz1814]

Please do a balcony/house tour

[@juliakim2330]

This is such a gorgeous video! One question though, where did you get the passiflora amalocarpa? I looked everywhere but it was out of stock. Thank-you!

[@Snowssss]

Qué bonito

[@emmazorilla7553]

i love most "song of india" plant
